Fundraising Plarn Basket

Posted on June 22, 2024

In March, I crocheted a recycled plastic bag or plarn basket for an upcoming fundraiser. The post and details about the basket are found here.

I filled the basket with some jar opening helpers, dishcloths, a towel with a crocheted topper, a candle, a potholder, a notepad and some wine. Hopefully a fun assortment of different things which will be a auction favorite for my local Relay For Life.

The jar opening helpers are crocheted with just a bit of cotton and the pattern is available here.

Next in the basket is:

The crocheted towel topper pattern is here. It uses a recycled milk jug ring for the hanging loop.

The diagonal potholder was crocheted from Andrea’s hotpad pattern that is a longtime favorite of mine.
